Kanye West “associate” and other Trump cronies threatened 2020 Georgia election workers
In the 4th installment of the January 6 hearings, we heard from Ruby and Shay Freemen, election workers in Georgia. Trump and his allies (including a Kanye West “associate” ) baselessly accused them of vote tampering in the presidential election.

Talia Jane Versus Yelp: BEST OF TANGOTI
This week, we spoke to labor reporter Kim Kelly about the wave of union organizing at places like Amazon and Starbucks. In light of that, let's revisit our conversation with Talia Jane, who made headlines back in 2016 for asking her company Yelp to pay workers a living wage.
After Talia Jane called out Yelp for failing to pay a living wage, she became the "entitled millennial" poster child. But she was actually right.

Customer Reviews
Good content but
I can hardly believe how many commercials there are.
Engaging
The Missy Elliott episode was especially wonderful!
In some episodes the background music can overpower what the host or guest is saying - not enough to stop listening though
Found you on JBU
Will continue to listen here
